The Casbah is back and this year with five live bands:

Big Ups, Crows, USA Nails, Drahla and Häxxan

 

Going to be a busy schedule and a lot of clashes for me this year.

That's 5 more added to my wishlist...

[mellowmaniac]

Stage Four:
Arp Frique (DJ), BRAZ (live), Carista, History of Soul (DJ Leroy Rey), Ionica Smeets, Joep Beving (live), Michael Midnight, Never Mind The Brexit (St. Paul UK Only Est), Steve Davis & Kavus Torabi, Tala Drum Corps, The Gospel Sessions (DJ), The Mauskovic Dance Band (DJ), Thys, Yous & Yay (Sef & Faberyayo).

Most interesting for me is Joep Beving who is one of the neo-classic shooting stars right now.

Not sure where they'd put it though. Not a lot of spare space at the site.

Could be the 3voor12 Session Stage / Secret Garden Stage - or they'll add another small (surprise) venue.

Neither am I but 3 days + James Murphy is there + Soulwax playing last year. Can't be anything else I reckon. Maybe they'll chop a few trees down for it :-)

Hi guys, its my first time going
Is it allowed to bring our own food  and beverages into the camping area? How does it work with bikes? Are there enough of them? 

[Samuco]

Hi guys! Im a newbie, Im coming to BKS from Perú in southamerica. I was wondering if someone of you guys will return by car to Amsterdam after LCD soundsystem"s show, I need a ride (I will pay for it) thanks for your help! Cheers and rock an roll!!!!!!!

Anyone know how the cashless thing works here? Will I be able to just use my contactless card or do I need to put cash on a wristband or something? Also with the campsite being separate can you still come and go from the festival site as you please? Or can you only go in and out once per day?

Hi guys, 

How easy is it to buy weed within the festival grounds, me and my girlfriend are going for the weekend but we have a hotel instead of camping so we are tempted to stock up in Amsterdam on the Friday and smoke it before entering the festival. 

[callumG94]

Also, are the shuttle buses available to book before hand or do you just turn up on the day, we'll need the late buses every night so don't want to be stranded haga.

Schedule is very kind. Sat with it for a bit and pleased. Misty vs preoccupation s is one I'd have liked yo avoid but generally very happy.

Does anyone know how hard it'll be to get from stage 2 to 1 for a headliner, Deeehunter over to AM etc?

It's kind of next to each other. Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes. Usually it's quite easy to get a decent spot in front of Stage 1 if you're there only a couple of minutes before the shows start.

 Ace thank you

Does anyone know how far is it from the Safari Resort to the festival grounds? Can I walk, or are there shuttles?

The Safari Resort has just been built, but based on the map it doesn't seem further away than a lot of the camping sites and other bungalows. Depending where you are on the Safari Resort, I'd say it probably will be a 15-20 minute walk to the festival site.
